Hi John Yes, that's exactly what I have done - I've saved the time of the first fix, and compare it to the time of the latest fix.
If the two are the same when the time comes to check location, i.e. there is no time difference, I know that there hasn't been an update during the life of the application, and so the fix is probably out of date.
